Dead

Many cultures have existed
Many colorful expressions of Love
Many beautiful customs and dances
All gone

Different shades of genuine faces
Different tapestries of folklore
Different facets of global light
A rainbow

Killed off
Murdered
Desecrated
Dead

The Love is gone
But you can find a substitute in a green glass bottle
Or a plastic white container
Or a syringe
Until you are
Dead

The beautiful cultures are
Dead

You do not even know about them
The history is
Lost

So it remains
Dead

But

They dance in their rainbow colors in Sacred Beauty on the Other Side
When no one can see

I wish you could see it with me
